it's too important for washington to screw this up. now is the time for us to work on what we all agree to, which is let's keep middle-class taxes low. that's what our economy needs, that's what the american people deserve, and if we get this part of it right, then a lot of the other issues surrounding deficit reduction in a fair and balanced and responsible way will be a whole lot easier. if we get this wrong, the economy is going to go south, it's going to be much more difficult for us to balance our budgets and deal with our deficits because if the economy is not strong, that means more money is going out and things like unemployment insurance and less money coming in terms of tax receipts and it makes our deficit worse. we really need to get this right. i can only do it with the help of the american people. so tweet, what was that again? my 2 k, tweet using the hash tag my 2 k or e-mail, post it on a member of congress's facebook walls. do what it takes to communicate a sense of urgency. we don't have a lot of time here. we've got
